9 the theme of a much-desired journal constantly appears in the manuscript diary of Mr. Alcott, both in connection with this club and with his own meditations. Thus he writes (March 12, 1839), Before long a journal will be circulating the thoughts which are now talked about in private circles, Alcott's Ms. Diary, XII. 464.--yet this he says evidently in his general attitude of prophet and seer, without more definite forecast. Soon after (March 27), he writes:-- Brought home with me Brownson's Boston Quarterly Review, for April. This is the best journal now current on this side of the Atlantic, but falls far below the idea of the best minds among us. Its circulation is limited. A better work will appear before long. Some of the freest pens now lie idle for want of a channel. . . . The Christian Examiner is timid and conservative. Alcott's Ms. Diary, XII. 542. Again, in his record of a meeting of the club, May 8, 1839, it appears that the first topic of discussion was Th

a, and will probably visit us next summer. He will be glad to see you. I have heard him say that he thought you the first judge and jurist of the day. Take him all in all, and I cannot hesitate to place him before Follett. In my next I shall continue my sketch of the common law barristers, and then shall carry you before the Lord Chancellor. Ever affectionately yours, Charles Sumner. To George S. Hillard. London, Feb. 4, 1839. dear Hillard,—I wish you to do me the favor to send Brownson's tracts, and his Review for the first year,—in short all the publications that contain any thing of his philosophy,—to Rev. Professor Whewell, Athenaeum Club, London. The latter is a friend of mine, and is now engaged on an extensive philosophical work. In my last I wrote you that Prescott's book had been reviewed in the Edinburgh. The author is Mr. Gayangos, a Spaniard and great friend of Lord Holland. He also wrote the article on the Moors in the London and Foreign Quarterly, for <

which Margaret Fuller, assisted by R. W. Emerson and George Ripley, was the editor. Its first number was issued in April, 1840, and its last in July, 1844. which has been started by Mr. Emerson,—the same who was reviewed by Milnes. The first article in both numbers is by Emerson. People have laughed at it here very much. I am curious to know if it finds a more kindly reception with you. Emerson and his followers are called Transcendentalists. I am at a loss to know what they believe. Brownson has recently avowed some strange doctrines, for which he has been sadly badgered, both by politicians and philosophers. Have you received all his journal, or as much as you wish? If I can send you any thing that will interest you, pray let me know. I read in the journals of your great book, and the extracts given tantalize me, as it will be so long before I may get the whole. Let me congratulate you on your distinguished success, and believe me, Ever very sincerely yours, Charles

pressly forbade the appropriation of public money for sectarian schools. October 29. Cushing's previous complicity with the coalition is described by C. C. Hazewell in a letter with the signature of Algoma, published in the New York Herald, Nov. 12, 1853. The Washington Union, about the same time, speaking for the Administration, announced that every Democrat continuing in the coalition would be promptly removed from office. The Catholic newspaper of Boston in its weekly issues, and O. A. Brownson in addresses, appealed to them to vote against it. It was charged also that at various points ecclesiastical influence was directly and openly exerted. This was the first time that the foreign or Catholic vote was appealed to in the State as a special interest and carried as a distinct body. The liquor interest was stimulated into active opposition to the new Constitution by the proposed reduction in the representation of Boston, where its power lay, and by antagonism to the Free Soil

a grand flourish, the Emancipation League paraded the name of Senator Wilson as the orator who would address them at Cooper Institute on last night. It being ascertained that Mr. Wilson could not come, they advertised Rev. Dr. Cheever and Mr. O. A. Brownson. The fame of these gentlemen attracted exactly 216 persons to Cooper Institute, 41 of whom occupied the platform. As the clock told the hour of 81, the audience aforesaid manifested, in the usual manner, signs of impatience, whereupon Mr. Hart advanced to the desk, and apologized for the non-appearance of Mr. Wilson, on the ground of public duty; for the absence of Mr. Brownson, because he had not promised to come; and for the absence of Dr. Cheever, who is in "delicate health. " He then read the following letter from Senator Wilson: Senate Chamber, June 18, 1862. Dear Sir: I deeply regret that I cannot fulfill my engagement to speak on the 19th for your Association. When I made the engagement I thought we should b
